Hypothetically create the results of this experiment. Experiment with varying lengths of pauses in different situations. So, for instance, when someone says “hi” to you, wait 5 seconds before responding if you would normally wait 3. If someone asks you a question, or your opinion on something, wait a few seconds longer to answer it then you normally would etc. Experiment with different lengths of time for each scenario. What happens if you wait 6 seconds as opposed to 2 seconds? What about 10 seconds? What is the normal amount of time it would usually take you to respond? Also experiment with answering things immediately, no pause at all; as soon as you know what the person is saying come in with a response. How do people respond to these varying lengths? What do you think it means to them when you use a shorter or longer pause? What messages are you sending?
